Kaitlyn's Perspective:

I'm still stuck in this skin. Ice consumes me, frost flows through my veins. Cold blood circulates through me, infecting my bruised heart. I was a host, and killer frost was my parasite. I've tried to escape her chilling grasp, but she never budges. Never gives up any inch of leeway. I'm stuck, in the skin of a cold-blooded murderer.

My eyes have seen the worst. Worse than my years with 'Team Flash'. Worst than my E.R. cases as a doctor. I've come in contact with merciless death, torture, and massive bloodshed. All from the hands of my own. The next morning, I wake up burdened my alter-ego. I look in the mirror; at night, I see warm, auburn curls and rosy cheeks. In daylight, I see her pale lips curve to a twisted smile. I can't escape. She is my living, breathing prison in hell.

"Today is a new day," I convinced myself. I stood in front of the mirror and closed my eyes. I raised my chin and snapped my eyes open. I was still me; my amber eyes stared back at me sternly. My S.T.A.R. Labs sweat shirt shrugged off my shoulders, and my auburn hair curled around my neck, framing my face.

A soft whisper echoes through my skull, "I'm coming..." She spawned a whirlwind of pain and fiery; my brain drummed against my cranium, sending waves of agony throughout my heart and lungs. I gasped for breath and braced the ivory marble, my knees wobbling fiercely.

"NO!" I pleaded, my voice wavering, "Please." I craned my neck towards my reflection. My face distorted from my pink lips to her cold, blue ones. Bleached strands of hair ran down my roots, and my skin started to pale. I was composed of two different people, both of us fighting for command.

I felt myself letting go, giving in, giving up. My chance of control was diminished. I tried to scream, but she had already took the wheel.

Killer Frost's Perspective:

Ah. It feels good to have domination. This body is weak, yet my host still resists my power. She needs me. I make us stronger, better, fiercer. Besides, today is a new day. Today's the day when I meet the Flash.

I combed out my silver locks, and snatched the lipstick labeled, "Dagger". I tore open the seal and smothered it over my icy lips. I puckered them and admired myself in the mirror. For a second, her golden eyes crept through my barrier. They flickered on and off; she was still fighting. When will she learn? I froze the glass with the flick of my wrist, and shattered the reflection. Gone; I no longer sensed her.

  "Now!" I clasped my hands together

"Now!" I clasped my hands together. "Time to meet the man of the hour!"

I clutched my hand purse, full of my arsenal of sharp weapons: mostly daggers and arrowheads. I won't need them; my hands are my hidden weapons. These are for my friends. My friends. They sure are a...unique set of individuals. Dare I say, more villainous than myself. And that's saying something.

I strode down the streets of Central City towards S.T.A.R. Labs. Ever since I 'emerged', I've gotten flashes of Kaitlyn's memory. She has a lot of memories of her friends. I can probably name all of her wacky, idiotic pals.

I pondered, "Let's see... oh yes! Cisco: mechanical engineering genius, ruined by his allegiance at S.T.A.R. Labs. His reputation is finished and all that's left to do is capture meta humans with his "trustworthy" team. Not to mention, he also coined the phrase, "This house is bitchin'". Next, H.R.: Failed writer and CEO of S.T.A.R Labs in Earth 19. On team Flash, he often plays drums, buys coffee, and comments trivial information in random situations. Finally, Barry: aka the flash, aka the streak, aka crimson comet, aka scarlet speedster. Known as the fastest man alive (sometimes) and leader of Team Flash. He's also gotten drunk in various locations with Kaitlyn as well as sang "Crazy For You" on karaoke night. Well, enough of that."

By the time I caught myself up on the latest drama of this crime fighting team, I was already at their main headquarters. The cortex was empty, the computers monitors were blank and the glass desks were vacant. Only the security cameras buzzed. I walked over to them and scanned the footage. Then, I saw what I came for. Barry and Iris were kissing on the track. There lips interlocked in an embrace as their lips ran over each other. My eyes had never seen anything more vile and repulsive. I turned away in disgust and headed towards the loop.

I breathed in the crisp autumn air as I passed the threshold of the back door. My eyes landed upon the couple and I strutted towards them. As I came closer, their eyes stared in terror. I smiled and clacked my leather boots against the pavement.

  "Hello lovebirds," I smirked and extended my arm to my chest

"Hello lovebirds," I smirked and extended my arm to my chest. A flurry of ice blew from my fingertips towards my bulls-eye: the Flash. Ice struck his legs, leaving an glacier on his thigh. He yelped his pain and squinted at me.

He heaved, "Who are you?"

"We. Are. Killer Frost."
